Together Project makes change in three interconnected ways: building newcomer social connections, supporting newcomer integration priorities, and amplifying community involvement in newcomer integration in Canada.
We match Welcome Groups of 3-5 volunteers with newly arrived refugees for social and integration support. We are delivering the Welcome Group Program in Mississauga, Moncton, Toronto, Vancouver, and Winnipeg.
We share volunteer resources to help support newcomer households in our Welcome Group Program.
Together Project supports our work through evidence-based program evaluation and research to inform and improve our impact.
What are three great strategies to help our Welcome Group Program volunteers and newcomers connect? Diane, a Welcome Group Program volunteer and one of our steering committee members, created this video with us to help inspire Welcome Groups in Vancouver, Winnipeg, Mississauga, Toronto, and Moncton!
